		From the 4th century, when the codex gained wide acceptance to the Carolingian Revival in the 8th century many works were not converted from scroll to codex and were lost to posterity.

	Codex Wallerstein
		Of course, one could ask the question whether the codex illuminator had a particular type of sword in front of his eyes when illustrating the manuscript, or he was rather presenting in general the forms of sword commonly used in his environment: the latter option is more probable.
		Both due to the scarcity of space and on account of the fact that the author works at present on the edition of Codex Wallerstein (Volume 1 should appear at the end of this year), there would be no point in presenting the whole text of the transcription.
		For example, as it was pointed by M. Rector, the manual of Talhoffer was not devised as a 'teach-yourself' handbook–it was rather to fulfil a sort of declaration of his competence, and was destined for men already possessing a certain amount of skills and knowledge, Talhoffer (1467), 9-10.

		The Gothaer Codex begins with a detailed discussion of how to determine the proper day and time to fight based on your name and astrolgogical data, all sheathed in a pseudo-scientific wrapper by the addition of the name "Pythagoras", as if the name itself were a talisman of science.
		The Ambraser Codex is dated to 1459 by many authorities, however I don’t believe this to be the case: The clothing illustrated in the work is much earlier than that; compare the high waists and low skirts of the doublets with those of the Alte Armature und Ringkunst or with the 1467 fechtbuch.
		The second section of the Wallerstein Codex is of a much earlier date than the first part; I would estimate it as being from 1410-1415, making it one of the very earliest fechtbücher in existence.

	Sword Forum International - Codex Wallerstein: Question on this type of shield.
		If you look at Wallerstein pl. 181 (http://www.thehaca.com/Manuals/187.jpg) you can see a shield on the ground with a clear forearm strap, another for the hand or wrist, and the guige at the top.
		Wallerstein does not show any fighter with a guige around his neck, and half the images clearly do not show any sign of a guige.
		Second, while none of the pictures in codex Wallerstein clearly show a guige in use, they nonetheless do show them present, and one shows the guige unstrapped while the shield lies on the ground, suggesting it had been unfastened before being removed: http://www.thehaca.com/Manuals/187.jpg

	FireStryker Living History Forum : Review of Codex Wallerstein
		By itself this manual doesn't really seem to be a complete fighting system: for example, the basics of longsword use aren't included; you almost get the feeling you're reading "tips" for an already experienced swordsman.
		The first part, which the translators call "part A" is clearly late-15th century German, and includes unarmored longsword, messer, dagger and wrestling techniques with fairly extensive written commentary on each plate.
		I don't find this to be a bad thing at all, but the text and pictures are a bit difficult to understand unless you already have a very solid grounding in German MMAs.

		I also noted a few of his interpretations that are at odds with the recently published translation of the Codex Wallerstein.
		However, the Codex translation (plate 81) makes clear that this drawing depicts the prelude to the equivalent of tomoenage, a throw in which the thrower grasps the throwee, sits on his butt, puts his foot in the throwee's stomach, rolls back and launches the unfortunate throwee over his head.
		Again, this is a reasonable interpretation, but the Codex translation (plate 90) makes clear that this is not a head butt after all, but a one-arm tie-up.
